Soliana’s local guide to Brighton

As residents of Bayside ourselves, we are intimately familiar with navigating this prestigious locale. It is renowned for its top-quality schools like Haileybury and Brighton Grammar, exclusive retail stores such as Style Runner and Scanlan & Theodore, and excellent dining and drinking establishments. Of course, we are fortunate to reside along one of the finest beaches adorned with colourful beach boxes, the marina, and the iconic Brighton Baths. 

Here are the top places you must visit to fully experience Brighton’s distinctive charm.

1. Brighton Beach: start your day with a visit to Brighton Beach, renowned for its iconic bathing boxes. Take a stroll along the pristine sands or capture picturesque moments against the backdrop of the city across the water.
2. The Pantry: treat yourself to breakfast or lunch at The Pantry. This beloved café is a local establishment and everything on the menu is to die for.
3. Brighton Yacht Club: embrace the bay side spirit of Brighton with a visit to the Brighton Yacht Club. Whether you’re a sailing enthusiast or simply enjoy waterfront views, this club offers a serene retreat by the bay.
4. St. Martin’s Cafe: for lunch, unwind at St. Martin’s Cafe, a local favourite known for its laid-back ambience and seasonal menu that is sourced from local ingredients. 
5. Brighton Schoolhouse: a historic landmark that has been transformed into a contemporary dining venue – our favourite kind of combo. With its innovative dishes and elegant setting it makes for a memorable dining experience.
6. Mr. & Mrs. P: need to unwind after a long day at work or chasing after kids? Mr & Mrs P has a great cocktail list and a wholesome vibe.
7. Aromi: a little bit of Italy in a little bit of Brighton. Aromi has authentic Italian pizza and pasta – we couldn’t tell you our favourite menu item, they are all great.
8. White Rabbit: you can experience the best of Mediterranean dining at White Rabbit. With its inviting hospitality and delicious dishes, you’ll find us there regularly as it’s our go-to for business meetings.
